Our most popular pad among backpackers and campers at higher elevations. The Insulated Static V Lite™ performs exceptionally well in places like our Utah backyard -especially in the winter. Light enough to take on all the but most ultra-light adventures, this pad packs a ton of warmth with Klymalite™ lofted synthetic insulation, yet packs small enough to slide into the water bottle sleeve on most multi-day backpacks.

Body Mapping Technology: Our patented V-shaped design delivers support and comfort no matter how you sleep – on your side, stomach or back.

Klymalite™ Synthetic insulation: Lightweight, compressible and durable, advanced synthetic insulation in the chambers slows the transfer of air between the top and bottom halves of the pad for improved thermal performance.

Side Rails: Integrated into the patterning and construction, they provide a secure, comfortable sleep by centering you on the pad and inhibiting air movement while tossing and turning.

What is the best way to store v lite pad long term after hiking trip? Any special advice? Thanks.

You can store your pad rolled up neatly in the stuff sack that it came in. Just make sure to wipe it down with a damp cloth to remove any dirt that might be present and make sure it is thoroughly dry before storing it for long periods of time.

I have heard it explained that the Static V series gets part of its warmth from the bottom of your down sleeping bag lofting in the riffles beneath you. Is this true? I am a quilt camper and would like to know if that is an issue with this pad from a warmth perspective.

The body-mapping V chamber design limits air movement to help maintain insulating performance and ergonomic comfort. They also allow space for the insulation in your sleeping bag to loft creating added warmth. If you camp below 40° F with a quilt, I would suggest using an Insulated Static V.

Pads must be cleaned regularly in warm water and hung to dry. For particularly dirty pads mix 2 cups of warm water with 1 tablespoon of baking soda and wipe down with a washcloth. Rinse well. Do not use any detergents, even natural detergents. Do not put in washing machine. Be sure to close the valve before hand washing. Pads that are not washed well will not qualify under our warranty policy. Let air dry completely before storing in the provided stuff sack.
